(iv) It is a custom-designed and custom-built unit, which no nationally
recognized testing laboratory, or Federal, State, municipal or local authority responsible for the enforcement of a
Federal, State, municipal, or local law,
code or regulation pertaining to the
storage, transportation and use of anhydrous ammonia is willing to undertake to accept, certify, list, label or determine to be safe, and the employer

(v) For the purposes of this paragraph (b)(1), the word listed means that
equipment is of a kind mentioned in a
list which is published by a nationally
recognized laboratory which makes
periodic inspection of the production of
such equipment, and states such equipment meets nationally recognized
standards or has been tested and found
safe for use in a specified manner. Labeled means there is attached to it a
label, symbol, or other identifying
mark of a nationally recognized testing
laboratory which, makes periodic inspections of the production of such
equipment, and whose labeling indicates compliance with nationally recognized standards or tests to determine
safe use in a specified manner. Certified
means it has been tested and found by
a nationally recognized testing laboratory to meet nationally recognized
standards or to be safe for use in a

(9) Safety relief devices. (i) Every container used in systems covered by paragraphs (c), (f), (g), and (h) of this section shall be provided with one or more
safety relief valves of the spring-loaded
or equivalent type. The discharge from
safety-relief valves shall be vented
away from the container upward and
unobstructed to the atmosphere. All
relief-valve discharge openings shall
have suitable rain caps that will allow
free discharge of the vapor and prevent
entrance of water. Provision shall be
made for draining condensate which
may accumulate. The rate of the discharge shall be in accordance with the
provisions of Table H36.
(ii) Container safety-relief valves
shall be set to start-to-discharge as follows, with relation to the design pressure of the container:

valve shall be installed on the fill connection and a remotely operated shutoff valve on other connections located
below the maximum liquid level.
(4) Safety relief devices. (i) Safety relief valves shall be set to start-to-discharge at a pressure not in excess of
the design pressure of the container
and shall have a total relieving capacity sufficient to prevent a maximum
pressure in the container of more than
120 percent of the design pressure. Relief valves for refrigerated storage containers shall be self-contained springloaded, weight-loaded, or self-contained pilot-operated type.
(ii) The total relieving capacity shall
be the larger of:
(a) Possible refrigeration system
upset such as (1) cooling water failure,
(2) power failure, (3) instrument air or
instrument failure, (4) mechanical failure of any equipment, (5) excessive
pumping rates.
(b) Fire exposure determined in accordance with Compressed Gas Association (CGA) S1, part 3, Safety Relief
Device Standards for Compressed Gas
Storage Containers, 1959, which is incorporated by reference as specified in
1910.6, except that A shall be the
total exposed surface area in square
feet up to 25 foot above grade or to the
equator of the storage container if it is
a sphere, whichever is greater. If the
relieving capacity required for fire exposure is greater than that required by
(a) of this subdivision, the additional
capacity may be provided by weak roof
to shell seams in containers operating
at essentially atmospheric pressure
and having an inherently weak roof-toshell seam. The weak roof-to-shell
seam is not to be considered as providing any of the capacity required in
(a) of this subdivision.
(iii) If vent lines are installed to conduct the vapors from the relief valve,
the back pressure under full relieving
conditions shall not exceed 50 percent
of the start-to-discharge pressure for
pressure balanced valves or 10 percent
of the start-to-discharge pressure for
conventional valves. The vent lines
shall be installed to prevent accumulation of liquid in the lines.
(iv) The valve or valve installation
shall provide weather protection.

devices, and pressure gages, shall be labeled to designate whether they communicate with liquid or vapor space.
(3) Container appurtenances. (i) All appurtenances shall be protected against
physical damage.
(ii) All connections to containers, except filling connections, safety relief
devices, and liquid-level and pressure
gage connections, shall be provided
with suitable automatic excess flow
valves, or in lieu thereof, may be fitted

which shall remain closed except during delivery operations. The control
mechanism for such valves may be provided with a secondary control remote
from the delivery connections and such
control mechanism shall be provided
with a fusible section (melting point
208 F. to 220 F.) which will permit the
internal valve to close automatically
in case of fire.
(iii) Filling connections shall be provided with automatic back-pressure
check valves, excess-flow valves, or
quick-closing internal valves, to prevent back-flow in case the filling connection is broken. Where the filling
and discharge connect to a common
opening in the container shell and that
opening is fitted with a quick-closing
internal valve as specified in paragraph
(f)(3)(ii) of this section, the automatic
valve shall not be required.
(iv) All containers shall be equipped
for spray loading (filling in the vapor
space) or with an approved vapor return valve of adequate capacity.
(4) Piping and fittings. (i) All piping,
tubing, and fittings shall be securely
mounted and protected against damage. Means shall be provided to protect
hoses while the vehicle is in motion.
(ii) Fittings shall comply with paragraph (b)(6) of this section. Pipe shall
be Schedule 80.
(5) Safety relief devices. (i) The discharge from safety relief valves shall
be vented away from the container upward and unobstructed to the open air
in such a manner as to prevent any impingement of escaping gas upon the
container; loose-fitting rain caps shall
be used. Size of discharge lines from
safety valves shall not be smaller than
the nominal size of the safety-relief
valve outlet connection. Suitable provision shall be made for draining con-

soil. Paragraph (b) of this section applies to this paragraph unless otherwise noted. Where larger containers are
used, they shall comply with paragraph
(g) of this section.
(2) Design pressure and classification of
containers. (i) The minimum design
pressure for containers shall be 250
p.s.i.g.
(ii) The shell or head thickness of
any container shall not be less than
three-sixteenths inch.
(3) Mounting of containers. All containers and flow-control devices shall
be securely mounted.
(4) Container valves and accessories. (i)
Each container shall have a fixed liquid-level gage.
(ii) The filling connection shall be
fitted with a combination back-pressure check valve and an excess-flow
valve; one double or two single backpressure check valves: or a positive
shutoff valve in conjunction with an
internal back-pressure check valve or
an internal excess-flow valve.
(iii) The applicator tank may be
filled by venting to open air provided
the bleeder valve orifice does not exceed seven-sixteenths inch in diameter.
(iv) Regulation equipment may be
connected directly to the tank coupling or flange, in which case a flexible
connection shall be used between such
regulating equipment and the remainder of the liquid withdrawal system.
Regulating equipment not so installed
shall be flexibly connected to the container shutoff valve.
(v) No excess flow valve is required in
the liquid withdrawal line provided the
controlling orifice between the contents of the container and the outlet of
the shutoff valve does not exceed
